11. Whom did David marry in 1997?

From Quiz David Duchovny

Answer: Tea Leoni

David and actress Tea Leoni dated for about eight weeks before getting married on May 13, 1997. They have two children and were together until 2008 when they separated. They reunited in 2009 but separated again in 2011. They divorced in 2014. I remember watching the "The X-Files" which was filmed in Vancouver, Canada for the first few seasons and enjoying the overcast, dark aesthetic that location brought to the show. Duchovny lived in Los Angeles and got tired of filming in Vancouver, particularly after his marriage to Leoni. His request to move the show production to Los Angeles was accommodated and the show took on a new, sunnier look. In my opinion, that was a bad move! But if one of your main stars wants something, you give them what they're asking for I suppose.

So, of course, no one believes me. I´m an annoyance to my superiors, a joke to my peers. They call me Spooky, Spooky Mulder, whose sister was abducted by aliens when he was just a kid and who now chases after little green men, with a badge and a gun, shouting to the heavens or to anyone who will listen that the fix is in, that the sky is falling and when it hits it´s gonna be the shit-storm of all time".

He used his first lifeline on a question about IBM's slogan, choosing to poll the audience. He then phoned his wife for the $64,000 question about where the Duomo is located (he could've asked anyone on this site!). She didn't give an answer in the time allotted so he used the 50/50 and the last of his lifelines. He guessed Florence and got it right. He made it to the $250,000 question and got it wrong!! He ended up winning $32,000 for the charity.
